Hello Dave. Welcome to AOS.
Tell us more about yourself.
If you can enlighten us, please go ahead.
Enjoy the forum,
Geoff.
WTF? :eek:
Enlightenment? My light went out a long time ago. Welcome anyway :)

Come on Dave, spill the beans.
Tell us more and what your interest in Hi-Fi is and also, if you have a system what is it?
I'm hoping you intend to be a serious member and do have something good to contribute.

I sense tension here. I prescribe a strong dose of Rega, a generous length of SoundCord and some Harbeths. Take twice daily and all will be harmonious in your world.

Rega & Soundcord? Not in my system. Harbeth? Maybe.
I'm awaiting the "enlightenment".

I sense a desire to learn and your acceptance of the mighty Harbeth is encouraging. Your path to enlightenment will be slowed unless you accept the teachings of the great sensei Gandy and spiritual master Tai Chi Dun.

Could this be the true path to the ephemeral 'loadabolox'?

For many years I studied at the Golden Dojo of Kayjay to bring you these teachings. Sometimes the student is not ready. The great way to enlightenment is easy, yet many prefer the side paths. Ay-yah.
... speaking personally - I prefer a loofah .....

Elsewhere I am known as Nodrog but the spelling gets confused from time to time.
Rega, Soundcords and Harbeth.
You "sound" familiar. :ner:

Your words are those of truth. I have indeed sensed the presence of a fellow apostle to the Great Teachings here on this very forum. Together we will strive to bring greater enlightenment to all who seek sonic truth.

Rather Silly Disk Jockey?
My birth name is not important. Through the scared teachings I am reborn as Ranceo-Sensei Davinity Junior
I seek only to share my wisdom. Peace and harmony to you, great wood-wizard. There are many great creations from the Gods of Harbeth, Spendor and Rogers that need your magic touch. Are you ready to follow the true path and give your talents over to the service of the BBC veneer restoration quest?

I regret that I strayed from the path you follow some time ago. I found the teachings of me mum to be more enlightening. "Do unto others" she said. This was to include how you speak to and about others as well, as Karma tends to shit on your head if you are not careful.

I thought Tai Chi was supposed to be relaxing and good for the soul, and not scare people? :lol:
Rega & Soundcord? Not in my system. Harbeth? Maybe.
Nor mine (SUPER soundcord possibly, but only in selected places where I work...):D Ask Alex...

There is a meeting about schizophrenia at the town hall tonight, I've got half a mind to go.
Did you know that two in every one person is schizophrenic?

Cant say i have ever been impressed by the sonic performance of silver plated Steel core cable!
And if you have come here truly with the soul purpose of enlightening, then be prepared to be enlightend!

The internal secrets of the sacred cables are a closely guarded secret in order to protect from the undeserving who seek to copy without recognition, but steel is as smokescreen here.
I know not of those "bottles" you purvey. I was taught by my masters to beware of poison in bottles!

The problem with having 'masters', of course, is that the 'acolytes' tend to believe everything they say whatever crap there might be amongst the good.

News to me, and if this is indeed a copper core, and not Steel, then its probably the same cable i was using around 15 years ago, which was indeed a good cable, however, i was never a fan of mixed metal conductors...

The smokescreen has lifted and gift of enlightenment has brought to yet another soul. Thanks be to the giver of enlightenment.

Hey guys, the expression 'feeding the trolls' comes to mind:)
It seems you are not yet ready for the Great Way. I will take my leave and await your progress. The Teacher will return when the student is ready. Namaste :)

This appears to be somebody fairly astute, judging from the prose. It would be interesting to know the agenda (there has to be one) (harmless? humorous? malicious?)

Posibly all three!

I think it's pretty obviously where the source material comes from so I assume it's someone trying to be funny with a malicious bent. As to harm, words cannot harm but they can cause ill feeling which seems a talent that some possess.
Can you trace the IP?

Yep, a swat team is en route;)

If I read this right, the path to enlightenment (of the wallet?) is just to double the number of cables, until you reach the pinnacle?

Assuming the average length of a step is 76 centimetres https://www.walkingwithattitude.com/articles/features/how-to-measure-stride-or-step-length-for-your-pedometer then the "enlightenment (of the wallet)" comes at a cost of £380 per step in the case of TIS :stalks:
It's still a lot cheaper than some cables though.

Very true but conversely it's also a lot more expensive than most however that's all irrelevant as the others are not on the supposed path to enlightenment :)
